Hi everyone,
Effekseer looks amazing, and the work done by Planktonfun is truly excellent. I really hope it will be implemented at some point!
In the meantime, I’ve created two extensions—one simpler and one more advanced—that can help fill the gap while we wait for Effekseer (hopefully I’m not going off-topic).
The first extension allows you to create presets for the Particle Emitter, so you can build your own library of effects, combine them, and, most importantly, modify them quickly, even using just 4 or 5 emitter objects in the scene.
The second one is more complex and still being refined: it allows you to apply many PixiJS effects directly to objects or groups. It’s similar to Trapcode tools, for those who have experience with Visual FX.
I applied it to some simple particle effects with really impressive results!
I talked about it here:
